New players can download Genshin Impact for free from the App Store (iOS) here and Google Play (Android) here. The PC version is available on the official website here and the Epic Games Store. iOS users with iOS 14.5 or iPadOS 14.5 and later can enjoy playing with PS5 and Xbox Series X|S controllers.
